Κύριος Notes

That we may be saved, that we may have life,To find our way in the darkest night, let your light shine on us.

Scripture Reflections Luke 11:33-36

Jesus is our light in a dark place33"No one lights a lamp and puts it in a place where it will be hidden, or under a bowl. Instead he puts it on its stand, so that those who come in may see the light.

Lord Jesus light up my heart. Fill in all of the dark empty places with your grace and love. Help me to see the places that need your light...that I would avoid looking at...the dark corners of my soul that only you really know about.

34Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are good, your whole body also is full of light. But when they are bad, your body also is full of darkness.

The eyes of those You were teaching could not see the truth of the message even when the evidence was right in front of them. They saw only what they wanted to see. Lord Jesus help me to be open to all that you would have me to see.

35See to it, then, that the light within you is not darkness. 36Therefore, if your whole body is full of light, and no part of it dark, it will be completely lighted, as when the light of a lamp shines on you."

Completely lighted...all of the darkness gone all of the empty places filled. Holy Spirit work in this heart...work in this church...work in this community.
